You conveyed that? How?

Really, what neat little delineation is there between your little OS hack-on world and people using whatever language they want to make their software? There isn’t. Because people on a long-running project can have members who want to move code over or start modules in Rust or whatever language. As is happening in some places.

Beyond that though the projects that one is interested in would need to remain static and not include potentially new projects written in upcoming languages.

Against that backdrop we have you, moaning about lang X potentially infecting your OSS ecocsystem.

I have now read your other replies from about four days ago. They go into substantive reasons like the licensing of LLVM. So I have no complaints about those.
